About Me

My name is Royce Allen Harmer. I was born on August 8th 1940 in Grimsby, Lincolnshire . In the past I have worked in the fishing industry, British and Norwegian Merchant Navies and the light engineering industries.
I was always keen at drawing at school and was frequently complimented on my ability to produce work from memory.
I started painting as a hobby in 1970 and after a spell in hospital took up painting seriously. After a sell out exhibition in 1977, I then went to North Wales to become the artist in residence at the Maes Artro Craft Village, Llanbedre.
Two years later, after a couple of successful summer seasons I left to travel about the country. I finally settled in York, where I painted the still ever popular

'The Three Little Pigs'

of which the first print went to Princess Diana and Prince Charles for the birth of Prince William.

It was here in York where I met my lovely partner Heather, and we are still very happy after 26 years together. I have also worked as a tutor and have had two galleries in the city. Visit the Gallery to view what is available for sale at the moment.

I hope you enjoy my website and 'Thank you' for taking the time to look.

Best wishes,

Royce
